I chose Canterbury Inn because of the looks of the facility; it was clean and bright. The virtual tour and professional attitude of the staff were great. My mom was very ill and the nursing staff, in particular were outstanding.

Review for Canterbury Inn
I would say it's a very nice place. But the resident would say- when in Covid restrictions recently (twice in a year), the food was cold, awful, and often not what was ordered when stuck in room-and not enough outings.But nice friendly and nice residents and enjoys a few of the activities.

Caring Place To live.
Since I would not be able to do this at home. That said, it's outrageously expensive but comparable to other facilities I've checked. Based on the experience we have had so far, we would recommend this community to other families.

Maintenance is at best difficult
The staff are amazing and the director does all that he is allowed. It is frustrating the elevator in the chateau has not worked 5 times this year. It needs to be replaced. It seems that Koelsch is more interested in new facilities than keeping up the existing ones. Very frustrating if you can’t get to a doctor appointment because the elevator isn’t working. The stairs are not an option for seniors with walkers. Wry sad situation.

Excellent facilities, caring staff, dining and events
I highly recommend Canterbury Park. All the staff are friendly, professional and very helpful. The entire facility is well organized, maintenance and cleaning are always done on time and with a smile. The meals are excellent, served with a smile and professionally prepared. Living here is just what I looked forward to as a independent senior citizen. Residents are friendly and there is much activity, both planned and spontaneous. I am impressed with the all the staff from the director to the maintenance and housekeeping folks. They are indeed friendly, helpful and professional. Thank you all.

Great place for family members who need a little help
Overall experience 4+. We haven't used the nursing care as is starts at [fee removed] /month for each person & they couldn't guarantee showering in evening. So I do their med set up & assist with bathing. Seemed a bit steep for their price! Food has been constant problem. Usually is cold, or not great. But overall, my parents are happy there. My dad suffered a small stroke a few weeks ago and they responded quickly & appropriately. We were with him when it happened, thankfully. Bus service is great, drivers are very friendly. Apartment is wonderful and we'll set up for wheelchair.

A Great Place to Live, If You Can Afford
If you can afford it I would recommend you go for it. This is a lovely place to live and they will take care of all of your needs. Once you get past the front desk you are all set. The staff communication with the family could be better. One of the Director could have been better during our stay, as they didn't seem to be proactive in communication, caring, or doing anything with the job. The other Director seemed to be at the top of their game and willing to help the family. There were three meals a day and options for the residents to choose from. The food was excellent.

My mom really likes this community. She really enjoys the food served, the residents receive 3 meals a day, they are very accommodating to my loved one. The communication with the staff is good but could be a little better. The community activities are bingo, they have an exercise program and many more. My mom seems to really like the social aspect of this community.

Tour experience
Canterbury Inn was great and the Liasons was a great person people. But my Dad is what they consider Medically Complex. This facility's RNs felt that my Dad would require a lot of attention/monitoring. They felt he probably would be better served in Skilled Nursing and not their facilities. Weird part is they never even met with my Dad for a assessment. This was just them reviewing his medical records. So it's not that I didn't choose them. They just told me no thanks!

Great experience
Canterbury Inn has been absolutely wonderful. The staff members here have been honest and caring. It has been a totally different experience than what we had at his previous facility. They were totally prepared for his Alzheimer's and the care here needed and we were lucky to find this place. I would absolutely recommend to others.

I have been in the Canterbury Inn many times visiting. It is such beautiful place. Seeing the people that live there, you can tell staff care for them. The staff are friendly and smiling. They have really worked hard during this hard year we have been in. I can't wait for them to have their Bazaar again. I would love to live here.

A welcoming, friendly retirement facility.
My mother has enjoyed living at Canterbury Inn for the past 7 years. After investigating all the retirement homes in our area, we concluded this one was the best. Comfortable apartments, well-maintained, a lovely spacious dining room with 3 meals a day provided, nursing staff available 24 hr a day for any emergent situations, wonderful senior activities programs. All this factored into Mom’s initial decision to reside at Canterbury. But what I have learned since then and what is most important to me is the caring, warmth and thoughtfulness of all the staff towards my mom. I have complete confidence that my mom is safe and well cared for. In my interactions with the staff, they are always patient with both my mom and myself, obviously caring, go out of their way to help, conscientious. As a retired nurse, I appreciate when medical related issues have occurred with my mom the staff has responded quickly and accurately assessed the situation, giving me confidence and peace of mind.

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services: Before you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.

  • Know the Washington regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about Washington regulations for Assisted Living.
